(More customer reviews)i play piano semi professionally utilizing backing tracks to have a band type of sound. i was ecstatic when i saw these, i bought 2 Billy Joel ones and 2 Elton ones. they are decent backing tracks. HOWEVER, they actually have a goofy piano track going in addition to what the sheet music says to play. The most blatant example of this is in Baby Grand. The great standard sounding tune that Billy did with Ray Charles. It is a great chance for the piano player to shine and play some fairly intresting chords with a band in the background. Unfortunately, there is a goofy rhodes sounding piano aping along with you. it is kind of silly I have to admit. Another example it Daniel, from the Elton series. Yes you play the piano along with it, but the main rhodes piano is still there playing along. maybe i am being picky but when i am playing Daniel, or baby grand for that matter, I'd like for the only piano playing to be ME. still fun to mess with but anyway.....
